Excerpt from Applied Physiology Including the Effects of Alcohol and Narcotics
I. The body is made of separate living cells, each like a little animal.
Each cell obeys the mind and works for the benefit of the body.
Cells are made of five things, viz., water, albumin, fat, starch, or sugar, and mineral substances.
These five substances are formed outside the body, and are food for man.
Oxygen is also taken inside the body, and burns up or oxidizes the food and some of the substances of the cells.
